    Hello. I’m hoping someone can help. I was given a Barbour jacket as a present but the tag has only 2 royal stamps, as opposed to three. Does that mean it is counterfeit? Thanks

    Hi all, I'd like to buy a Barbour jacket, bjr would like to satisfy myself of the origin of Sykloil that they use on the wax jackets. Is it from bees wax or is it some kind of paraffin based wax? Thank you so much!

    As a premium men's outerwear brand, Barbour is legendary for its jackets.

    Hi guys, this is my first post so please don't be too harsh on me. I've recently just bought a Barbour Beaufort in size 40 and it just came today, I was really excited because I could tell the jacket itself was very high quality except for one thing. When I put the jacket on it's way too big...

    Ive recently bought a Barbour Classic Quilted Waistcoat to use zipped inside my Barbour Beaufort. My questions are: Would you wear it alone ( without having it zipped inside the jacket)? If so, what would you wear under the vest? I bought it kind off large sized, how should they fit?

    Is Barbour be steering people in urban areas toward a certain "trim look" for the Beaufort? If so, it is a look that has less to do with the jacket being a functional item of clothing and more to do with making a trendy fashion statement. Has anyone on the forum had similar thoughts? Here's...

    Hello everyone, I came across a vintage olive colored waxed cotton jacket made by a company called Kenrick out of England. I have a Barbour Border jacket and the quality of the Kenrick jacket seems to be very close if not in line with that of Barbour. Any info on Kenrick would be greatly...

    Barbour introduced a revamped version of the Gamefair for 2010, and having seen it in person it looks like a heavyweight variant of the Beaufort. Having read a few threads here about Barbour jackets, I'm trying to find out more about the earlier Gamefair - model A123. Can anyone here help out...

    It's raining here in Philadelphia, as it has been for most of the last week. And that's got me thinking... What do you gentlemen wear in the way of hats when it gets wet outside? Fedoras? Jeffcaps? My raincoats are both barbour (Beaufort and trench). Today I wore the trench when I left my...
